   Blessed for over three decades with eyesight fully equal to that of Mr. Magoo I have ever been dependent upon a good strong pair of Gregory Pecks. Included among the design specifications for such spectacles must be a structural integrity capable not only of accommodating lenses of an alarming, not to mention Hubble-like, thickness but also of withstanding the daily shocks any goggles of mine are invariably heir to. Over the years, sad to say, I have clownishly perpetrated the most reckless abuses on these vital and utterly innocent optical aids, accidentally dropping them on tiled and hardwood floors, sitting and even lying down on them, kicking them by accident under heavy furniture, standing right on top of them, sometimes going so far as to actually stamp on them, repeatedly, again totally by accident, catapulting them upwards in frequent fits of head-snapping laughter, and even once or twice letting them fall into the toilet like Henry Kissinger himself does in that great Simpsons episode from 1993. Matter of fact it was this same wacky old geezer with his freak show accent who was responsible for the latest outrage committed against my eyewear when he cropped up right out of the blue in a devastatingly funny little cameo in Tom Pynchon’s novel Inherent Vice. Set in 1970, this hilarious book features a perpetually high and hairy PI who after falling asleep in front of the tube one night in a Vegas hotel wakes up next morning with Henry Kissinger on the Today show going: “Vell den, ve schould chust bombp dem, schouldn’t ve?” I cracked up so completely on reading this that when I came to my glasses were nowhere in sight and ended up in fact wedged somehow down the back of my La-Z-Boy. All this is, however, a rather daffy and roundabout way of saying that I require a certain robustness in my peeper frames–a requirement I am happy to tell you that is more than met by these fine and dandy Ray Ban Wayfarers right here. Virtually unbreakable and available in sizes up to and including bucket-head, which I myself am proud to measure, these babies are undoubtedly the best dang goggles I have ever accidentally pedaled over on my bicycle. Plus with lenses darkened sufficiently to inhibit anyone staring straight at me from seeing directly into my brain–such is the extreme level of correction I am obliged to roll with–these Ray Bans look right bleeding snazzy to boot.
